Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Psyllium husk powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Warm water
- 2 teaspoons Ghee or coconut oil (optional, for cooking)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients, a little at a time, and begin kneading the mixture into a soft, pliable dough. The psyllium husk will help bind the dough, so allow it to rest for a couple of minutes during the kneading process to hydrate fully.
Step 3
Once the dough is smooth and pliable, divide it into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball.
Step 4
On a lightly floured surface, roll out each dough ball into a thin, round disc about 6-7 inches in diameter. Use additional almond flour for dusting if necessary to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet or tawa over medium heat. Once hot, place a rolled-out chapathi on the skillet and cook for about 30-45 seconds, or until you see bubbles forming.
Step 6
Flip the chapathi and cook the other side for another 30-45 seconds. Flip it again and press gently with a spatula to encourage puffing up. Cook for an additional 20-30 seconds, or until both sides have golden brown spots.
Step 7
Optional: Lightly brush the chapathi with ghee or coconut oil right after cooking for added flavor and moisture.
Step 8
Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls, serving the chapathis warm with your favorite low-carb curry or side dish.
